Good! You've come to the right place. All you need to do is refer to the poem 'Singh Song!' in your anthology! 

 

To quickly recap: Written by Daljit Nagra, Singh Song! is about a British Indian man who is speaking about his life, which revolves around working in a corner shop. He often neglects the shop to spend time with his new wife.

 

The speaker states that the customers complain about the neglectful state of the shop, but he doesn't care! As long as he can spend time with his wife, he's happy and content.
